Hello Marc -

I tend to prefer to use the source tarball and keep each Radiator 
version seperate.

        cd /usr/local/src
        mkdir Radiator
        cd Radiator
        mv .../Radiator-3.1.tgz .
        zcat Radiator-3.1.tgz| tar -xvf -
        cd Radiator-3.1
        perl Makefile.PL; make; make test  # **DO NOT INSTALL**
        
Then I use fully qualified pathnames in my scripts (including perl).

PERL=/usr/bin/perl
RADIUSDIR=/usr/local/src/Radiator/Radiator-3.1
RESTARTWRAPPER=RADIUSDIR/goodies/restartWrapper
RADIATOR_CONFIG=/usr/local/etc/radius/radius.cfg
RADIATOR_ARGS=

        PERL RADIUSDIR/radiusd .......

This way, I can keep different versions of Radiator and switch amongst 
them quickly and easily.

And the same is true of Perl itself if I need to have different versions 
of Perl available.

Additionaly, it is obvious from the startup scripts what version I am 
actually running and which configuration file is active. I find it is 
*much* better doing it this way and much simpler for systems admin folks 
who come along afterwards who have to try and understand what is going 
on (and god forbid fix any problems).

Just my own views.

regards

Hugh
